Horizon view
Horizon from Geiger Y
12.4449° S, 158.1007° E · cell 43LCE
- Highest horizon point
- An unnamed point: 11.2° above the horizontal, 32.2 km away at azimuth 142°.
- Farthest visible point
- 32.2 km away at azimuth 127°, 10.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,725 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 28.3° under it at azimuth 262°. At 2026-10-22 15:38:38 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 1.9 km, the global LOLA terrain tier of 16 pixels per degree; relief smaller than that, near or far, is smoothed, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
